Advantages of Topical Pain Creams 1. Faster Relief
Your skin is the largest organ in your body, and it has the ability to absorb anything that is applied to it. This is great for pain management, as a topical cream can be applied directly to the affected area for immediate relief. When pain medication is taken orally, it must pass through your digestive tract and be absorbed into your blood stream before the benefits can be felt at the site of the pain. When you're in pain, every minute seems to last longer.
2. Reduced Side Effects
By using a topical cream, the medication bypasses the digestive tract. As a result, many of the side effects that come from oral pain medication usage are avoided. Traditional pain management often causes a wide range of side effects because they are designed to fit as many situations as possible. Since topical pain medications are applied directly to the skin, you minimize spreading active ingredients to other areas of the body, resulting in less risk for side effects. In addition, it's much safer to re-apply pain cream that it is to wait until you can take another dose of oral medication.
3. Localized Treatment When you use a topical pain cream, you have the flexibility to apply it directly on the area causing you discomfort, and only that area. You don't have to wait for your body to process the medication and wait for it to reach the pain site. The medicine also isn't impacting your entire body because you're not applying medicine on areas that don't need it.
4. Personalized Medication
Through compounding, we are able to combine several medications into one easy to use topical cream. These compounded formulas can be adapted to fit your personal needs. For example, a compounded formula can be tailored to both ease pain immediately and reduce inflammation.

Acute pain can easily evolve into chronic pain and become difficult to treat. Have you learned to accept the side affects that come with your oral pain medications? Stop taking the commercially available medications that leave you feeling drowsy, dizzy, nauseous and more! Struggling through chronic pain problems like arthritis, fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, and nerve or muscle pain does not have to be a daily activity.
